Missed the WSU Loss to UK... • Mar 20, 2017 08:51 PM

@JayHawkFanToo

She brought herself into the discussion by being a drunk buffoon in public, in my opinion.

@BeddieKU23

Bragg might just be a mid-major big too, if we are being honest. BUT, can KU sign better this spring?

Next recruit up • Mar 20, 2017 08:47 PM

@BeddieKU23

KU isn't recruiting Waters, according to MS on 247. So, pretty conflicting.

WELP, went to twitter. Seems like Zags got his shit corrected now.

@BeddieKU23

I can see the logic there. It would just be great to get some good fall signings.

Looks like Nevada is the likely landing spot for Jeter.

Bolden might transfer as well, with TCU being the likely spot.

Next recruit up • Mar 20, 2017 05:34 PM

This is from a couple weeks ago but Duke "doesn't expect" Jeter to be back next year.

@BeddieKU23

He'd be a fine get. I mean, we are starting Lucas this year.

Grimes and Dotson are the only 18 recruits I feel KU is definitely prioritizing right now. Outside of that, it's wait and see. Going to have a lot of post minutes available.

Congrats Marcus Garrett • Mar 20, 2017 04:49 PM

Yeah I posted this in the recruit thread but def deserves a thread.

@BeddieKU23

It might be bogus. Walker tweeted false information sir to a tweet that has since been deleted. The KU/WVU thing is just from his 247 profile.

Oh and excellent on McCormack. Can't hurt that Preston is probably in his ear. Maryland will probably be in there until the end.

Yeah idk, when there is more about it I will post more.

MJ Walker down to KU and WVU. WUT.

Their insiders seem confident too. Fans seem split. It's a bit weird. We will see.

Well, Harris had no business coming back either.

@kjayhawks

I say this as someone that does think they are a good team, because they defend.

They just aren't a very good shooting team when they have to play against an athletic team. Saw it in all their marquee games outside the valley. The UK game was actually their BEST shooting game out of the OU, OSU and MSU games at 38%. Average it out and it's about 37% shooting in those games. Even their first round win against Dayton (a good team) they shot 39%. Compare this to their near 50% shooting percentage in the MVC. The MVC masks their weaknesses and embellishes their strengths. I'll admit I fell for it a bit this year.

Next year they will definitely be better. No idea what their schedule will be like, but they should hope to go undefeated so they get a better seed and avoid an athletic opponent in the carney as ole bate calls it for as long as possible.

@justanotherfan

Agree. Marshall wanted old school Self/thug n mug ball. Neutralize UK's advantage. That was his hope, and it almost worked.

Even just a lower level P5 school ie not KU, UK, Duke, Arizona.

Next recruit up • Mar 20, 2017 02:06 PM

MSU people think Bridges will return. That would be friggin stupid.

Sweet 16 Schedule • Mar 20, 2017 02:05 PM

@wissox

The tip times are a weird decision. You'd think the KU game being first and the Oregon game being second would make more sense due to time zones.

The March To (And Through) KC • Mar 20, 2017 12:43 PM

@drgnslayr

I'd love to see Tyler and hell Landen Lucas stay on as grad assistants. No idea what Landen's career goals are, but he's a smart kid.

@ralster

Think it has a lot to do with how he, allegedly, recruits.

Sweet 16 Schedule • Mar 20, 2017 12:33 PM

Sooooo one of Bay/South Caro/FL/Wisc will make the final four. DERP.

@Texas-Hawk-10

Weird decision.

Yeah I think he'd be transferring down.

Maybe ESPN will shut up about BPI for a bit. LOL GOOD JOKE.

This is "breaking news" on ESPN. DUKE LOST BREAKING NEWS.

Lets all take a second to laugh at KSU and Duke. KSU because the coach they ran outta town leads a team to their first sweet 16 and duke because I hate rat face.

Doing it with known basketball super power South Carolina no less. All because he hurt Spradling's feelings.

Day 4 Tournament Game Thread • Mar 20, 2017 03:16 AM

Duke going for the rare foul out your entire starting line-up special.

But Duke definitely should have been a 1 seed.

Definitely. Probably instead of KU or something.

@drgnslayr said:

This is a strange year in college basketball. Up to this point, there really isn't a dominant team. And the "lower" teams are playing better and challenging everything.

This thing is opening up...I like KU's chances about as good as anyone elses.

But but but, I just can't believe we are the third best team in the Carolinas.

Also KU beat this Duke team after playing an OT game on a short turnaround with long travel where KU shot like crap. SCREW DUKE.

Coach K losing early is about as underplayed nationally as Self losing early is overplayed.

Great reference.

I've have long thought that Kentucky would almost have to lose a post player to transferring, unless more went pro than expected.

Looks like it COULD be Humphries.

KU was involved briefly when he was in HS.

@JayHawkFanToo

I don't normally go @jaybate-1.0 but when I do Duke is usually involved.

The March To (And Through) KC • Mar 20, 2017 02:41 AM

@HighEliteMajor

Drew seems fine to me. Never been too keen on his coaching chops, though the last couple years or so I've been a little more impressed by him. He actually changed defenses in their first game, turned the game around.

Agree on Purdue. If they play big, Swanigan or their 7 footer has to guard Josh. Less than ideal for them on D.

Definitely no penalty for officiating poorly. These NCAA games seem to go on forever, with all the reviews.

With Self, I'll be worried if Pops retires + we win the title. Could be a perfect storm. I don't think he downgrades to Okie Lite, even with it being his alma mater. I hope Self is at KU for 10+ more years though.

The path looks good. Given the choice, I'd probably want to play Oregon, just given how dangerous Michigan is offensively.

I've been impressed with Josh all year. The anti-thesis of most oads.

I mentioned this about Swanigan in another thread. Suffice to say I agree. Try to abuse him on D with quicker players. Get him in foul trouble and that limits his minutes and therefore ability to play on the other end of the court, where he is extremely dangerous.

WSU's seeding was crap, but so was their schedule. They played a really tough game against UK today.

Day 4 Tournament Game Thread • Mar 20, 2017 02:05 AM

@JayHawkFanToo

Excellent.

Get Ready For the Riverboat Gambler... • Mar 20, 2017 02:03 AM

@Crimsonorblue22

Where KU needs to abuse them is their lack of quickness on D. Probably going to be a high scoring game. I think KU will win by 1 or 2 possessions.

Day 4 Tournament Game Thread • Mar 20, 2017 02:02 AM

@Texas-Hawk-10

That was a mess. Glad KU wasn't involved.

Oh I thought the Memphis contract was another short one. This is great news.
